Making a giant jolly rancher - any tips?

[flippyshark]

I hate to pirate this thread, but as long as candy enlargement ideas are being tossed around, I have need of creating giant jellybeans. (long story) So, if anyone has any thoughts on how they would do this (like the original poster, I would want to have a translucent quality, ideally) feel free to suggest away. (It would be awesome if someone happened to know where pre-fabricated giant jellybeans might be available.)

So that I'm not being too criminal, I'll second RStar's food take-out plastic idea - lightweight is always a good thing. And colored celo wrap seems like a fine idea.
